Show stoppers

Along with two other KU students in the show, you continue to perform on weekends. Performing before crowds of as many as 1,300 persons in the Tivoli Music Hall at the amusement park, you can book seats from more than 1,300 people who audition for the show last January.
Song and dance routines dazzle audiences at Tivoli
Staff Writer
By TOM RAMSTACK
Members of the audience had been treated to satirical renditions of American songs and dances during the 1930s. Now, during the show's finale, they caught the band in a tail behind the stage unfolded to reveal "The Dazzle Dazzle" spelled in glaring neon lights.
The dancers were dressed in top hats and glittering tuxedos. They put on a sophisticated whirlwind performance before the final curtain dropped.
"It all show biz, kids," one of the performers told the audience. "Glitter and glamour one day. Heartache the next. But I don't want to up that one. Just Razzle Dazzle."
According to four university of Kansas students who sing and dance in the performance at Worlds of Fun's Tivol Music Hall, the heartache is just beginning.
AFTER LABOR DAY, the 20 performers of A Cause to Remember will join Fun in claicero, Mo., will return to their colleges in four states or will work together only in their local community. The parish will parish in November.
The show's cast has been performing in the "Razze Dazzle" show five times daily and is on tour.
Besides honing their singing and dancing skills, they have become "like a family." Kim Cochran, Gardner senior and a cast member, said.
Another performer, Anne Aylmer, Salisbury, Mo. sophomore, said, "You have to have discipline. Sometimes you just don't like it." I also learned that I've also had to learn how to get along with
people. These are people who are ready to go all the time—energetic. I've really learned to love them. It's going to be hard to leave them at the end of the summer."
WALTER BRYANT, the musical director at the Tvoll Music Hall, said, "The casts get pretty close. You develop your closest friends here. All of a sudden, at the end of time, you can never see them all together again. It's kind of like graduating from high school again."
There are 34 performers, ages 16 to 25, in three stage productions at Worlds of Fun. There are 34 KU performers and two KU students in charge of lighting at the Tivoli Music Hall. There are two other KU students who perform at the Moulin Rouge Theatre.
"We get good auditions from KU." Bryant auditions we one of the most important auditions we do.
The performers were chosen from among 1,200 who auditioned last January in Arrowhead Stadium. Those selected for the annual January until Worlds of Fame opened in March.
MORE THAN anything, we look at their ability to perform," Bryant said. "We've turned down some beautiful singers to look for them, and we need somebody who can move and entertain.
"Eventually, everybody gets turned down for a professional job. We try to encourage all the people who audition. A lot of people, if they're really good performers, will say, 'Well, I didn't make it this time. I'll try again.'"
Donna Beard, 29, a choreographer at the Tvioli, said, "There are some of those who have had to learn to do ballet."
everything from good to bad. Singers who can sing and singers who can't sing. But they all have the feeling that they want to make the big time."
MARK BRIDGEMAN, 19, the stage manager, said there have been people from the Twilo Music Hall who went on to professional careers in New York or Las Vegas. But, he said that few of the current performers had stage career ambitions.
"They're just having fun and doing something in their off time from college," Bridgman said. "Same are not that we're but they change because they like it so much."
Doug Apploff, Falls City, Neb., junior,
said, "We want to keep performing. There's
nothing better than getting paid for
something you like to do."
Little criminal activity took place on campus during the holiday weekend, a spokesman for the University police department said yesterday.
Few holiday crimes cited
The spokesman said there were several reports of persons leaving the scenes of automobile accidents. Also, several complaints of harassment at different residence halls were made. Most of the incidents reportedly took place at McColm Hall.
The other performers agreed, saying that they hadn't been bothered by bad audiences.
Details of the theft were not made available yesterday and attempts to trace the bike owner failed. Campus police say they are prohibited from giving names, addresses or phone numbers from filed reports to callers.
The only reported theft or campus was of ten-speed bicycle taken from outside MA.
Also, Lawrence police received six reports last week of camera thefts.
The sixth reported camera theft, according to police reports, listed Charles A. Hughes IV, an employee of the University Center for Research, as having had a $5mm camera and four lenses shot by someone inside the door to his apartment at 1228 Ohio St.
